Multivariate space of the bird assemblage of the Black Forest, Germany, including cavity nesters and canopy foragers, for high (HA) and low (LA) abundance landscapes. Arrows identify the relative landscape variables used to build the PCA axis. Numbers on axis represent the variance explained by the principal components. High management intensity (HMI) and low management intensity (LMI) plots are determined by a hierarchical clustering on forest variables and visualized with 95% confidence ellipses, including the centroids. AI, aggregation index; CA, core area; CI, contiguity index; CFC, conifer forest cover; ED, edge density; ENN, Euclidean nearest neighbor; FC, forest cover; LSI, landscape shape index
